"Bitch Better Call a Cab"

So like I said working with this cat Tek is crazy. If I had to put groupie love in order it goes (in order)

NBA players
R&B singers
NFL athletes
Rappers

Now most of my career had been spent amont the lowest on that list, so some of this R&B lifestyle was still shocking. Such was the case when we spent 2 weeks in Vegas working on his most recent album.

Now Vegas is a crazy place anyway. So we are recording at the Palms (Big ups to George). So one of our favortie things to do after leaving the studios was to club hop. One night we are at the Bank Nightclub and tek runs into Sasha. Sasha was a stripper from Jacksonville. So you know what happens he takes Sasha back and well you know. Now Sasha is cool as hell she got along with everyone just a real sweetheart.

A couple of nights after we meet Sasha we are at a strip club over in Henderson. While there this one stripper name Lena is flirting with tek all night so after the club closes Lena winds up at Tek's room. This all happened on a tuesday.

So Weds Sasha is there, then thurs lena, fri was lena and sat Sasha. So here comes Sunday night we go to Pure and Lena tags along. Now around 1 am Tek bounces with Lena and his bodyguard back to the Palms. I stay cause well I'm having a ball. All of a sudden I get a tap on my shoulder and it's Sasha. She's asking me where Tek is cause she's been calling up all night. Apparently he told her to meet him at Pure before he knew Lena was coming out. So I tell her that he's not feeling well and to just call him in the morning. Bad move on my part. I leave about 20 min after that. So after arriving back at my room I hear this knocking. But it's not on my door it's at the door across the hall. That's Tek's room. So I look out the peephole and it's Sasha knocking on his door. Now I know he's in there with Lena cause not less than 5 min before he came to my room for condoms and a blunt. So here is Sasha knocking for a good 5 min. So I call his phone and I ask him if he knows she's there. Being his ignorant self he says "Yeah but my dick is occupied". After another couple of seconds the knocking stops. But about 10 min later the knocking starts up again. And goes for another 10 min. I'm thinking it can't be, but sure enough after I peek thru they slot it's Sasha again. So here she goes knocking for about 15 min straight until security comes upstairs and asks her to leave.

That gave us a good chuckle at breakfast. So I figured we'd never see her again. Boy was I wrong. We had a studio session that day from about 1pm-9pm to preview tracks. When we get back to the Palms Sasha is waiting in the lobby with a shoe box from Prada. She gives Tek the shoes saying "baby whatever made you not open the door for
me I hope this makes up for it". It did, well really so would some head but hey. So they get back to it. Next day it's more of the same no Sasha but Lena comes over after the club closes.

It's now weds and I make my weekly trip out by myself to the local strip clubs. So I wind up at Lena's spot cause she's promised to introduce me to some of her friends. So I see her when I get there share a drink until I see Sasha. Apparently Sasha normally works the day shift and Lena works nights. They both have a mutual "friend" in this girl named Jackie. Apparently Jackie had mentioned to Sasha that Tek was fucking this other girl in the club that works nights. Upon seeing me with lena Sasha runs to the back, gets dressed and leaves. I don't know where until Lena follows me back to the hotel for her "date" with tek and he doesn't open the door. Apparently Sasha was already in the room. So Lena just goes home. This continues on all damn week. Each stripper trying to beat the other one to Tek. It was remotely funny until the morning we where about to leave vegas for LA.

That morning after breakfast we are all outside waiting on the car to pull when Sasha (who one the 100 meter Tek race the night before) finally the car pulls up as we pile up Sasha comes over and says to Tek "Baby they towed my car" So at first we are a little upset until we find out that Sasha never gives the keys to the valet. She's so hungry to get upstairs to Tek that she pulls up infront of the hotel and takes her keys with her cause she didn't see the valet outside. By now we are almost about to miss the flight and I ask Tek what does he want to do about Sasha. And he says "Bitch wanna be speedy gonzalez tell her to catch a cab we gotta go"

And with that we where off to LA
